Solve the problem.In a certain city, the cost of a taxi ride is computed as follows: There is a fixed charge of $2.55 as soon as you get in the taxi, to which a charge of $2.20 per mile is added. Find an equation that can be used to determine the cost, C(x), of an x-mile taxi ride.

A. C(x) = 2.20 + 2.55x
B. C(x) = 4.75x
C. C(x) = 3.25x
D. C(x) = 2.55 + 2.20x
